Routing & Accommodation:

Mount Kenya Safari Club , this magnificent resort was built on the slopes of Mount Kenya during the 1950’s and attracted the rich and famous, from Hollywood to British royalty. In addition to luxurious accommodation, the club offers a heated swimming pool, golf, table tennis, horse-riding, bowls, croquet, scenic walks, an animal orphanage and much more. With magnificent views of majestic Mount Kenya, the 115 luxuriously appointed guest rooms, set in over 100 acres of landscaped gardens, offer a unique blend of comfort, relaxation and adventure.

Larsens Camp

Larsens Tented Camp is set in lush lawns on the bank of the Uaso Nyiro River,  Tranquillity and nature embrace you the minute you enter Larsen’s with the river being the perfect stage for an endless pageant of wildlife - elephants rolling and trumpeting in the shallows, timid impala nervously drinking, baboons and vervet monkeys swinging through the canopy of trees. An animal viewing platform in a tree lets you scan the vast Samburu plain. There are game drives, champagne breakfasts on the banks of the Uaso Nyiro River, sunset cocktails in the wild, bird walks and black tie dinners in the dining tent. There are 20 spacious en suite airy tents all raised on wooden platforms. The dining tent is open on three sides and faces the river. A first class dinner elegantly served by candlelight on tables set with silver and Larsen's china.

Mara Safari Club

Your base for the adventure is the Mara Safari Club, which lies in the north west of the Masai Mara, at the foot of the Aitong Hills. The camp is positioned on an ox-bow of the Mara River, so that all en-suite tents have a view of the hippo-filled river.  All tents have their own private viewing deck from where hippo and crocodile are regularly seen! Each room has four-poster beds with pillow-top mattresses and fine linens, 3-piece en-suite facilities with solar-heated hot, and cold running water, a refreshment centre, in-room safe and wireless telephone that allows you to set up dining on your deck or ensures no request is left unfulfilled.
